Birthday Wishes

Hi Bloggers.

This card was another demo from the shows on the 21st -

As usual, starting with the background, I spritzed through the Delicate Mask onto some Coconut White Card using Cosmic Shimmer Antique Rose Vintage Mister. I dried it with my heat tool and then inked through the Heart Confetti Mask with Dusty Concord Distress Ink using Cut n Dry Foam. Next, holding the crackle stamp from the Creative Expressions Textures Stamp Set in my hand, I randomly stamped sections of it using Aged Mahogany Distress Ink. Then I repeated the process with the script stamp from the same stamp set using Victorian Velvet Distress Ink. I finished the background off by inking around the edges with Aged Mahogany using Cut n Dry Foam.

I cut the largest of the new Spellbinders Stately Circles and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany. I stamped a flower from the Creative Expressions Funky Floral Stamp Set using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Amethyst Mist Lustre Embossing Powder from the Pinks & Purples Set. I cut it out using the next size down of Stately Circles and inked through the die with Aged Mahogany. I stamped a smaller flower, cut it out with scissors and added it to the larger flower with 3D Foam. I added some 3mm White Pearls as shown.

I put 'birthday' and 'wishes' from the same stamp set on to my block and stamped with Perfect Medium. I embossed with the Amethyst Mist Lustre Powder and cut it out using one of the new Spellbinders Framed Tags One dies. I inked through the die with Aged Mahogany and added a bow made with May Arts Two Tone Ribbon.
